“We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give”
- Winston Churchill
One of the key aspects of the IB Learner profile is to be caring. As an academy, we strive to help students understand the importance of caring for others in the community, being generous and selfless, as well as raising awareness about some very meaningful, community orientated causes.
The GEMS World Academy – Dubai community (students, staff and parents) has organised and participated enthusiastically in many charitable events over the years, both in the Academy and in the local community. After supporting Dubai Cares in previous years, our students decided to also support various charitable causes via Emirates Red Crescent, as well as organise various activities aimed to show appreciation for our own support staff.
